Can You Put Fondant Decor On Whipped Icing? Velvetop?

Hi, I am interested in getting myself some velvetop by dawn foods to use on cupcakes and was wondering if I can put fondant decorations on it and sprinkles and sugars?
Thanks

I have not heard of Velvetop, but used Pastry Pride (shelf stable whipped cream) and put fondant decorations on it which promptly melted. There's too much water in whipped icings & it melts the sugar in fondant & sprinkles.
Yes you can I do it all the time if you look at mi pictures most of the cakes are with pastry pride frosting and fondant decoration but what I do is that I put a layer of RI or chocolate on the bottom of the fondant deco. -f you have any question feel free to pm
Like that idea of protecting the fondant with icing or chocolate
Or, you can just use modeling chocolate, instead of fondant, for your decos!
